byusin|"RocKLAra> In a test on light plain lands, five plots of different location were sown in turnips. Half of each plot with manure, the other half without. The manure was applied at the rate of H to li cwt. per acre, with the following results : Average weight, no manures' tons per acre. Average weight WITH manure—--9f tons per acre. Tops on unmanured plots were not worth calculating. Tops on plots WITH manure—--1 ton 12 cwt. per acre. The feed would bo?— No manure, 3$ tons per aero; With manure, 11 tons 7 owt. per acre. Calculate the carrying capacities of these crops at sheep per acre per annum and you get:— Without manure—--1 sheep per acre per annum. With manure— Si sheep per acre per annum. price The immediate saving by not fertilising your Turnip Crop with "Rockland" Turnip Manure is but a few shillings per acre—an amount insignificant compared with the cost of labour, rent, interest, seed, etc. The net loss of NOT getting a full crop is out of all proportion to the small cost of "Rockland" Turnip Manure. "Rockland" Turnip Manure contains,.in the proper proportions, Superphosphate, High-grade Nauru/Ocean Phosphate, Potash 30 per cent., Bone and Blood, and Sulphate of Ammonia, all in a fine state of division to run freely through the drill. m 'i*m ti j i^b**im ;* ■ll * in» Delivered, railage paid, to any Railway Station to Canterbury.
